Breaking the mold of wedding photography
Spagnolo Photography is a Boston, MA-based husband and wife team that photographs weddings, elopements, and engagements in their own low pressure, candid, and documentary style. For over 15 years, they have covered weddings in castles, mansions, museums, aquariums, cruise ships, backyards, barnyards, and campsites. For them, it is a privilege (and a whole lot of fun) to document love stories.
Founders Aaron and Nanore Spagnolo have worked together for more than a decade as wedding photographers. For 16 years Aaron worked in photojournalism and commercial photography, and became an approved photographer by the U.S. Secret Service. He has worked for major companies like Harvard, MIT, Pfizer, and The Huffington Post. He began covering weddings exclusively after being asked to shoot a celebrity wedding over a decade ago, and fell in love with the niche. With a master's degree in conflict resolution, Nanore has been a photojournalist (and journalist) for various newspapers, covering stories locally and internationally. As a wedding photographer, she is committed to understanding the couple’s relationship in order to best capture it on camera. Together, they are a dynamic duo, excited to work creatively in different environments, lighting, and angles.
As weddings are made unique by the people celebrating at them, Aaron and Nanore want to document everyone’s individual contribution to the overall story of the day, no matter how great or small. Their tendency towards candid photography creates a well-rounded, balanced memento of the day.
Engagement photoshoots from Spagnolo Photography allow Aaron and Nanore to understand the dynamic between the couple. This then grants them insight into how best to showcase their relationship through images. Final images are available in an online gallery, for couples to peruse and print at their leisure. Their predesigned packages can be altered by à la carte options, to ensure the couple gets the coverage they want. If you feel drawn to their work, they would love to hear more about your plans.

Aaron and Nanore were excellent additions to our wedding day! They both have a great eye for picturesque, candid shots which was exactly what we were looking for. Even though we felt a bit awkward during posed shots, both Aaron and Nanore helped us feel more at-ease and comfortable. During the reception, they perfectly blended in with others, taking excellent candid photos of us, our guests, and the scenery that we set up for our special day.
Would recommend anyone looking for skilled photographers to hire Spagnolo Photography for their wedding! They were well worth it, and we couldn't imagine looking back on our wedding without their photos. Thanks again, Aaron and Nanore!
Aaron and Nanore were one of the best additions for our wedding. Not only did they provide us with absolutely SUPERB quality photos that we can look back on and cherish our special day for the rest of our lives, but they also were so much fun to be around, extremely creative with so many spontaneous shots that we would have never thought of just from the environment around us, and knew how to ease our stresses when it came to anything photography related. There were no moments missed with this dynamic duo and I hope for another event where I need photographers soon just so we can see them again! You won't regret having Aaron and Nanore as your photographers. THANK YOU BOTH SO MUCH!
We are so grateful and fortunate that we worked with Spagnolo Photography! Aaron and Nanore are incredible people, so kind and talented! Working with them throughout our wedding season was amazing. They are attentive, dedicated, and really wonderful to work with! And their work is truly incredible! They are very communicative and professional while being fun and engaging. We had a blast working with them and had so many compliments from our guests about them after our wedding. We can't thank them enough and recommend them 100%!
Any questions?
We were fortunate enough to have Aaron do our engagement and our weddings shoots. He was AMAZING. I literally cannot say enough good things. Not only is he ridiculously talented and does truly top-notch work (more than a caliber above most other work we looked at when picking our photographer), he was an absolute pleasure to interact with through and through. My husband and I connected with Aaron from the minute we met him- we had so much in common and we truly had a blast in all of our interactions. We sincerely intend to keep him among our friends. His work was supremely well done, always delivered on time, and always done to the highest professional standards. Thank you for everything. Can't recommend having enough!
We are so happy we found Spagnolo Photography! Aaron and Nanore are both so easy to work with- they are both very friendly and personable, and are extremely communicative throughout the whole process. Neither my partner or I are comfortable in front of the camera, but they were able to put us at ease and made the whole experience fun. We worked with Aaron on our engagement photos, which was so fun and they came out amazing. I appreciated how he worked with us to be more comfortable in front of the camera, and how creative he was in finding the perfect locations for the pictures. For the wedding, Aaron and Nanore were with us the whole day, and fit in with our guests seamlessly, so everyone felt comfortable as their pictures were taken. I really appreciated how creative they were with our formal photos, and they were able to get so many amazing candid shots. We are so happy to be able to relive our wedding through these amazing photos!
Choosing Aaron and Nanore Spagnolo as our wedding photographers was one of the best decisions we made. From the initial consultation to the final delivery of our breathtaking photos, the entire experience was nothing short of exceptional.
On the big day, I had the pleasure of working closely with Aaron, and I cannot praise him enough. His easygoing and calming presence made the hectic wedding day feel like a breeze. Not only is he a phenomenal photographer with an incredible eye for detail, but he's also a genuinely nice person who felt more like a friend than just a vendor.
The decision to hire a photographer team proved to be invaluable. While Aaron captured every moment with me, Nanore was with my husband throughout the day, ensuring that both perspectives were beautifully documented. This dynamic duo allowed us to relive every aspect of our special day through their lens.
The resulting pictures were nothing short of beautiful. Aaron's artistic touch and keen sense of lighting made each shot a masterpiece. The backdrops for our photos were stunning, and the editing was flawless—a perfect blend of enhancing natural beauty without losing authenticity.
One noteworthy detail is that the pictures on Aaron's website are just a sneak peek—compressed for online viewing. The full-resolution images, delivered through USB, were a revelation. Clear, detailed, and simply breathtaking. It's a testament to Aaron's dedication to delivering the highest quality.
I would 1,000% hire Aaron and Nanore again for any event. They not only exceeded our expectations in terms of photography but also added a special touch to our day with their warm personalities. If you're looking for a photographer who goes above and beyond to capture the essence of your event, look no further—hire this incredible team. Thank you, Aaron and Nanore, for creating lasting memories that we will cherish forever!
In my search for a wedding photographer, Aaron’s unique and creative work immediately caught my eye and I knew I had to hire him. I’m so glad I did. Aaron is an exceptionally talented photographer with a fine art and editorial approach. This was important to me as I didn’t want the staged, cheesy shots that most wedding photographers produce. Aaron had a vision for each and every shot, and shooting with him was a wonderful adventure. My husband and I were initially worried about posing but he guided us every step of the way and made us feel so comfortable, and by the end of the engagement shoot we felt like pros. This made our wedding photos feel like a breeze. The results are incredible; beautiful pieces of art that we will treasure forever. On top of all that, Aaron and his wife Nanore are so kind and such an awesome team. They made sure everything was perfect so we had one less thing to worry about. They are such great people and we felt supported by them throughout the whole journey.
We loved working with Aaron and Nanore! Not only did they take absolutely stunning photos on our wedding day, but they were both extremely easy to work with throughout the entire process. They responded to emails faster than any other vendor, were reasonably priced, fun to work with, and best of all, they turned around all of our photos in just over a month which was so fast! Work with Aaron and Nanore - you won't regret it!
What can I say? Such a positive & amazing experience with Aaron of Spagnolo Photography.
At my daughter’s wedding, Aaron captured the special moments in an artistic, edgy way. His talent & passion were evident. He told a story that cannot be expressed in words.
Besides telling a loving story through his photography, Aaron was fun, relaxed, professional & easy to work with throughout the planning process & ceremony.
I am thrilled with the results.
Aaron took the most beautiful photographs of my husband and I on our wedding day. He was fun to work with and had the best eye for shots. Would absolutely recommend hiring him!
Nanore and Aaron were amazing! We got the best wedding photos! They were both very friendly and worked with all of my crazy ideas. Having photographers like them really helped make our wedding day smooth.
Aaron took amazing pictures of our vow renewal ceremony! He was super professional and had some awesome ideas for the photos.
Thank you for capturing so many special moments for us!!!
We’re so happy we found Aaron and Nanore! They were a joy to work with!
Aaron is simply awesome, and is a pleasure to work with! We booked him to photograph our wedding (and a post-wedding shoot), and we couldn't have been happier with the experience.
He is warm/friendly, professional, patient, and was a good communicator throughout the entire process. He captured so many magical wedding moments, candid and staged, at our wedding which we'd never get tired of looking at. For the post-wedding shoot, Aaron suggested an excellent location in Andover. We had a myriad of stunning shots and we are obsessed with many of them. Aaron is truly gifted at what he does and thanks to him, we have the photos we wanted to remember our wonderful day! Also, he was super punctual and reached the wedding venue even before the bride/groom parties arrived.
We loved working with him and would highly recommend him.
Wedding planning during the pandemic as with everything else, was hard. Not being able to meet your photographer in person is even harder, but with Aaron and Nanore, it never felt like that.
After our initial call with them, we knew that we found the right couple to photograph our wedding. They were warm, friendly, accommodating and the pictures we saw were just the ones we were looking to get for our wedding.
Aaron is one of the most accommodating person I have ever met. When it came time for our engagement shoot, Aaron checked in on us often and kept us up to date with weather reports and location suggestions. Unfortunately, we hit a string of bad weather where any date we picked seemed to have a thunderstorm follow it. We were worried we would never be able to get our engagement pictures taken, but Aaron was quick to ease our minds and helped us reschedule and made sure we got the perfect shots.
On the day of the wedding, Aaron and Nanore were integral in the success of our wedding. Aaron controlled the entire space with ease, making sure we got the shots we wanted and made sure our guests did not get in the way of the shots. Nanore went out of her way to make sure to get all the little details and capture the candid moments throughout the day. Most importantly, they checked in on us often and made sure we were able to take a breath and grab a bite to eat.
We cannot recommend Aaron and Nanore enough. Beyond the wonderful pictures we received, their bright personalities and their caring nature shined through the more time you spend with them. You will not be disappointed by choosing Aaron and Nanore for your big day.
We can't say enough positive things about Spagnolo Photography! We had both our engagement and wedding pictures done by Spagnolo Photography and love the photos. They make the process comfortable and fun and are always responsive to any questions. We couldn't imagine working with anyone else!
Aaron did an amazing job with our engagement session this October. He was always very responsive, and helped us feel comfortable with our first couples shoot! Plus, the pictures we took in downtown Seaport turned out beautifully!
Aaron & Nanore did an amazing job covering our wedding. Their cool and laid back attitude took a lot of stress out of our wedding planning. On the big day they arrived on time and at the correct locations to get pictures of me and my bride before going to the ceremony. After our first look Aaron and Nanore spotted several great locations around the venue to get some scenic and close up portraits. During the reception guests asked about who our photographers were and loved how they stayed out of guests way, but we’re still able to grab some amazing and memorable photographs. Spagnolo Photography was even able to deliver us about 20 preview photos while we were on our honeymoon. A full digital album was delivered a few weeks later and the pictures were definitely worth the wait. I highly recommend Spagnolo Photography if your in the market for a wedding photographer or any event where u want some great pictures to remember the day by.
Aaron and Nanore are a dream to work with. They are true geniuses when it comes to photography. I love their photo journalistic approach to everything and they make you feel extremely at ease. It's a true partnership that I'm so glad we made. I'd highly recommend Aaron and Nanore for any event!
Aaron was great to work with. He had a ton of "trade secrets" of great places to take photos and had a lot of cool tips that are great, especially for a couple that may not have a clear idea of what they want to do. We didn't end up moving forward as we found another photographer that fit our needs a bit better but definitely enjoyed hearing Aaron's input and expertise.
Aaron was great to work with, especially during this crazy year. He is very talented, with an artistic eye, but also very down-to-earth and was willing to be flexible as our plans changed due to covid restrictions. He arrived early and was willing to stay later than originally planned. We highly recommend talking to Aaron and Nanore. While there are plenty of options out there, we wouldn't hesitate to use them again (and are already thinking about it, once we can host a bigger celebration).
Aaron and Nanore were awesome from the moment we contacted them. Every and all communication were so prompt, and they were on top of everything even until the day of.
I initially contacted them because of all the subtlety they caught that I've noticed in their portfolios. Of course, there are some poses here and there, but nothing felt forced. Everything seemed so natural and when we saw previews of our wedding photos, they really did catch the personalities of party.
Favorite part of the whole session is the photos near the cows at the Barn at Gibbet Hill. As we were going up the hill to the ceremony location, they noticed some great views and a beautiful tree to take beautiful shots. We did have to walk through the cow dungs, but Aaron and Nanore both walked ahead of us and made sure we did not step in them or get our clothes dirty both back and forth from the shot locations.
I've reached out to many photographers and Aaron and Nanore provided outstanding quality and a package that no one else can compete even in terms of pricing.
They were so popular, a lot of my guests asked for their information AND our family from Texas squeezed in a photo session to celebrate their 1 year old baby milestone.
Awesome team, cutest couple, GREAT service :) I can't wait to work with them again for our future milestones.
My husband and I could not have asked for a better wedding photographer and the pictures from our wedding came out perfect (and we did not have to wait long to get the full wedding album!). Aaron was also extremely flexible and willing to work with me after I had to reschedule the date and place of my wedding due to the pandemic, for which I was so grateful since I've heard so many stories where brides working with other photographers have not been so lucky! Aaron and Nanore helped to make our small wedding of 20 people feel extra special and they blended right into the mix while taking beautiful photos of us and our families. My husband and I are both not used to having "professional" photos taken of us and Aaron and Nanore put us at ease and made the whole experience a lot of fun. I highly recommend this photographer for anyone looking for an easy-going, kind, and detail-oriented person to be capturing the moments of a wedding day.
Aaron & Nanore are absolutely amazing!!!So easy to work with and are experts behind that camera lens!!! I would recommend them to anyone getting married in the future. I give them a ten star;)
Rita & Fernondo
My husband and I could not be happier with hiring Aaron for our wedding. He was kind, professional, and helped us feel at ease. He was prompt from our first email to returning our photos, and went above and beyond throughout the entire process. Our pictures came out beautifully! I would hire him again in a heartbeat!
We worked with Aaron and Nanore for our engagement pictures in July of 2020. From the beginning, Aaron and Nanore were amazing! They were able to create pictures that really captured us as a couple. Upon receiving our pictures, I cried! They were so beautiful! I could not recommend them enough!
Aaron was our photographer on our wedding day. We were originally due to get married in April 2020, but due to the pandemic, decided to elope at City Hall in October 2020. Aaron was so accommodating and patient. I (bride) was extremely late and we were unable to take first look pictures but he still found a way to make it work and the moment felt extremely special. We couldn't have done it without him. He was also able to send us a few pictures a couple of days later and they were beautiful. He was always extremely responsive both via email and phone. I will most definitely hire again and recommend Spagnolo Photography for any wedding photography needs.
Aaron and Nanour ARE THE BEST! Funny enough my now-wife gave me one job for the wedding -- get a photographer. We had our wedding in New York (Long Island - non religious ceremony) and even had our engagement shoot done with them as well. The photographs we have from our events are fantastic, amazing and other synonyms for great, we're so pleased with the outcome we're going to ask for other photo shoots too
Aaron and Nanore are an amazing duo! We had so much fun with them on our wedding day. I can't pose for a photo for the life of me and they just captured all of the pure joy and love we shared on our day. They had so many great ideas for unique shots. They knew the venues and where to get the best photos, even with changing the hotel at the last minute. They didn't tell us what to do, just let us be ourselves and enjoy our day. Then produced STUNNING photos! So many candid moments and beautiful photos - that we waited for the waves to crash just right on. If you don't want to the typical wedding photos and just want a couple to capture the day and add their creativity - this is your team!
Working with Spagnolo Photography was beyond a wonderful experience and I can’t recommend them highly enough. They are incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with, which is saying a lot given the amount of changes we had due to Covid. They were so gracious, understanding, and flexible when we changed our plans- including agreeing to a last minute island trip without hesitation! Beyond that, they took the most beautiful and authentic photos that captured the feelings and moments from the day perfectly. They were able to give us direction without feeling intrusive- the photos look so natural and genuine. Thank you to Aaron and Nanore for perfectly capturing our day- we look forward to reliving the moments through your pictures for years to come.
Aaron and Nanore were absolutely fabulous for our wedding. Photography was thing that I cared about most for the wedding, besides marrying my husband. Both Aaron and Nanore were not only amazing to work with, but captured the day and our personalities perfectly. It was literally the best decision we made. The wedding day goes by so quickly and I even have a hard time remembering most of it, but because we now have so many beautiful pictures and special moments captured I get to relive the day over and over again. What I loved most about this dynamic duo was their ability to be creative. I didn't want pictures that we were just standing and smiling at the camera. Some of my favorite pictures were when Aaron suggested I twirl in my dress and when Nanore caught me making funny faces at my bridesmaids. They made our day fun and easy and we will forever be grateful.
We hired Aaron and Nanore one year ago, and what a year it has been! Aaron and Nanore have been there every step of the way and we could not have been more impressed and grateful with their professionalism, artistic abilities, and friendliness. We were looking for a photographer that worked a bit outside the box and could go with the flow with our crazy ideas. We definitely threw a few zingers at them! And they responded with such enthusiasm! We were able to find an ease with them that was more like a friendship. The end result were some truly beautiful shots which we will look back on for years to come. We would hire them again in a heartbeat!
I had the pleasure of working with Aaron and Nanore for my wedding at Hammond Castle in Gloucester, MA. I cannot say enough good things about them.. from my initial conversation with Aaron I knew without hesitation he was going to be a perfect match for my wedding. His unique and unconventional photos initially drew me in. His work is so genuine and pure and his ability to capture the moment is extraordinary. Throughout the entire planning process leading up to the day he was fantastic to work with. He was even willing travel to the venue for an initial meeting and was engaged from start to finish. The day of my wedding, Aaron and Nanore were simply amazing. The venue itself was beautiful but they had a way of capturing it on another level. They truly made the photos come alive and now I get to relive every moment over and over again. I can’t stress enough how amazing this team is! Not only their professionalism and extreme talent but they are such a fun couple to work with and I’ll forever be grateful for them and how they made my dreams come true!
Nanore and Aaron were truly awesome to work with. From the initial meeting, they were professional and very personable. My husband and I were confident that they would capture beautiful shots based on their prior work and they did not disappoint. They individually captured different moments of the wedding from different perspectives and I could not be more happy with how our photos came out. On the wedding day they arrived on time, prepared and ready from the start. They took my wedding dress, rings etc. and took unique shots that I never would've thought I absolutely needed!They blended right in with the whole ceremony & reception and I received multiple compliments on how professional and kind they were as well as on how beautiful the photos came out.
Aaron and Nanore were so great to work with! Aaron was the first photographer we met and we never bothered to meet with any others. We were impressed by his experience and the contrast between their unique shots and others' boring, traditional shots. My wife and I both dislike posing for photos, but Aaron and Nanore made us feel relaxed during the wedding and the two engagement sessions we did. The photos they took will be cherished for the rest of our lives and we can't thank them enough for that!
Aaron and Nanore are so much fun to work with. They made my husband and I so comfortable, which made for the best pictures ever! Thank you so much for capturing these memories for us! We will surely use you in the future!
Extremely pleased with Aaron and Nanore's work! They were very friendly and a pleasure to work with on our wedding day. And the photos are gorgeous - exactly the clean, bright, modern style we were looking for. Being a hobby photographer, I was very picky about who I would get to shoot our own wedding, and I'm so happy we went with Spagnolo. Can't recommend enough!
Aaron and Nanore were wonderful to work with on our wedding day. They were so helpful and made it fun. We love our photos! They truly captured the story of our wedding day and in the most artistically beautiful way. They are a fantastic team professionally and creatively.
We booked Aaron and Nanore because we read glowing reviews about them everywhere we looked. From our engagement photos to our wedding day itself, my wife and I can now say for sure that they exceeded our expectations and lived up to the excellent reviews! Aaron and Nanore are a super down-to-Earth couple with a great eye for amazing shots. They're willing to get their hands dirty to snap the perfect pictures and make the experience super fun. All of our guests had nothing but great feedback about the two and we could do nothing but brag about how lucky we were to have them to capture our wedding day. We appreciated the two different perspectives they provided on our wedding day, different, but both equally amazing. Very much recommend Spagnolo Photography to anyone looking for not only great photographers, but great people. Thanks Aaron and Nanore for being a part of our big day!
Spagnolo Photography were the absolute best at accommodating our needs. Their ability to effortlessly tell a story through their pictures is what initially caught our eye. From two engagement shoots (both included in our package), to our very memorable special day, Aaron and Nanore were there to catch every single cherishable moment.
We plan on continuing to use their services in the future with our kids because we thoroughly enjoy their style of photography. You want something special and unique, with Aaron and Nanore you'll get exactly that!

Thank you so much, Natashali! We're blushing! We really enjoyed covering you both!!! ❤❤❤
The way I picked my vendors might have been a little different than some brides I needed to like your work and needed to enjoy the person or people themselves as people since they are going to be part of my big day. Aaron and Nanore were those people, they were fantastic from the first meeting always easy to get in touch with when needed always answered all my questions. If you can look at their work you can see they are truly talent and I am beyond in love with my photos they captured the enjoyment of the night which means the world seeing how much my friends and family enjoyed themselves and more candid photos that show our personalities. They made the whole process so easy and seamless , if you want some awesome people to take spectacular photos of your wedding, these two are it. I would pick them again in a heart beat

Liz! Thank you so much for this review!! You guys were so much fun to work with--we can still hear your laughter!
We really enjoyed working with Aaron and Nanore! They were relaxed and helpful as we figured out where we wanted to shoot our pre-wedding formal photos. During our ceremony and reception, they were so unobtrusive and yet still managed to get incredible shots. They are exceptionally talented photographers. We wanted to avoid fake looking or cheesy photos and instead wanted natural, candid, beautiful photos. Aaron and Nanore excel at these type of shots. We are so pleased with the way our photos turned out. I would absolutely use them again!
Response from the Vendor on 09/29/2019
We loved working with you two! Thank you so much for these nice words!!!
We hired Spagnolo Photography for our daughter's engagement photos and wedding in June. My daughter wanted a lot of candids and many detail shots (she wore jewelry with sentimental meaning, and her very artistic friends helped with the decorations and centerpieces). We went with Aaron and Nanore because we liked their "photojournalistic" style, and just the overall feel of their work. Boy we're glad we did! We love the photos so much! The photos are artsy, fun, and looking through them, I feel like I'm able to relive the wedding day all over again. They were pleasant and supportive throughout the day... in short, we're very impressed!
Response from the Vendor on 09/29/2019
Thank you, Analisa! We're so glad to hear how much you loved the photos!!
Aaron and Nanore did an amazing job with our wedding. They were able to capture some amazing candid shots that really hep us relive the moments. They were present but unobtrusive, which is exactly what we were looking for in our photographers. We would definitely hire them again!
Response from the Vendor on 09/29/2019
Thank you, Alyssa, for these words and for having us be a part of your wedding day!!! ❤
We were looking for a photographer with not only the skills to be able to capture our perfect day, but someone who made us feel at ease, someone who was friendly, enthusiastic, personable and trustworthy. We found all of this and much more in Aaron and Nanore. The entire experience from start to finish was nothing but fun and we were blown away by the level of dedication and commitment that Aaron and Nanore displayed. I would recommend this team to anyone and everyone as they became a special part of our special day, and the quality of the photographs that were captured are in my opinion 'unrivalled'.
As the father of the bride I was only worried about execution and budgets. Spagnolo photography was excellent in both regards!
Spagnolo photographed our daughter’s wedding at the Boston Harbor Hotel. We knew we wanted someone unique and we were not disappointed. They are the most creative, artistic, not to mention nicest photographers we have ever worked with!!! The wedding photographs are amazing and we couldn’t be happier.
Working with Aaron and Nanore was fantastic. They were on time, and totally ready to hit the ground running as soon as they showed up. Absolute pros. Aaron was very responsive in the months leading up to the wedding: we traded ideas, devised a plan, and by the time wedding day rolled around, I felt confident that the job was going to be done to both of our satisfaction. I also felt *extremely* confident in the work that I was going to get from him. His portfolio speaks for itself really. I can't say that I'm a very traditional bride, and I wanted him to capture some non-traditional shots in addition to all the traditional portraits, and to be able to stretch himself artistically. his eye is absolutely fantastic and I couldn't have imagined a better end product. He really excels at working with the conditions he is given to produce photos that are truly unique and awesome--photos that strongly represent his aesthetic, but also capture the essence of his subjects. Don't let his laidback demeanor fool you--Aaron is all business, and he delivers. I'd hire him again and again. My wedding and my engagement photos absolutely rule.

Jen, thank you so so much for these words! You guys were amazing to work with ❤
I found Spagnolo photography on the knot and really liked his work but was weary considering there are so many photographers for weddings! I was looking for someone who had a different eye- not just your basic Beacon Hill engagement pic or beach photo. Well Aaron definitely delivered! He is so artistic when you see him in action you don't really know how things will come out but when you see the pictures you are blown away. Form the angle to artistry of each picture I know I will have these amazing works of art forever.
Not only is Aaron an amazing photographer but he's also a super nice guy. He was always thinking of Samir and I from schedule to our vision. I could not have asked for a better photographer - unbelievable!
I would recommend (and have already started to) Spagnolo Photography to anyone looking for gorgeous pictures that truly capture a couples' relationship. From our first meeting to the day we received our photos, Aaron was professional, excited, and determined to give me and my fiancé the engagement pictures we envisioned. I was beyond happy with the results and would absolutely work with him again.
Are you looking for dedicated, high quality photographers? Someone who is willing to lie down on the dirt and grass, or isn't afraid to get wet, just for the perfect picture? These are the people you need! Aaron and Nanore are a great couple and feed off of each other's energy to catch the most fantastic photos. Nanore will make sure your hair is in place and will even swat away at the bugs that may crawl in your wedding dress. Aaron has an incredible eye for pictures. Even though you may think that a pose is weird, he will show you the picture and you realize it is amazing. He really understands how to take advantage of their high quality cameras, wide range of lenses, and other equipment like remote flashes. He knows how to use blur and clever angles to his advantage. His style is exactly what we were looking for - candid yet well framed, artsy, clean, bright, and full of color. Aaron is also well versed in photo editing to make those pictures just that much cleaner. We would definitely recommend!
We met Aaron while he was shooting our friend’s wedding and based on personality alone, we knew we were interested in working with him – once we saw the pictures we were sold! Aaron and Nanora have such a passion for what they do, and their commitment to taking beautiful shots for you is only seconded to how much fun they have doing it. They made what could have been a very stressful day easy going and fun. They’re full of amazingly creative ideas, take exquisite photos and are never intrusive. Aaron doesn’t just take your average wedding portraits, he captures who you are as a couple and makes you feel totally at ease doing it. By the end of the night we hoped they would stay and drink with us, but they had to drive home – so they’re responsible too! THAT is what kind of Photographers they are. So amazingly awesome that you want to be their best friends, and the phenomenal pieces of art they create are just the perk.
Simply the best wedding photography available in the Boston area. Could not be happier.
So glad to have found you! We got such amazing photos and such fun and kind photographers to work with! Friends and fam LOVED the photos ❤️ Highly recommend!
Aaron took our engagement pictures, and we had such a fun time with him! The pictures are amazing, and the entire photo session was in the middle of a snowstorm! Aaron has a great eye for angles and perspectives, we went all over Charlestown taking pictures in every setting! His pictures are creative and stunning! We highly recommend him. A lot of our friends told us his pictures are the best they have ever seen!
Aaron was wonderful to work with, fun, creative and very original! He is extremely responsive and gave us more than just wedding photos. From engagement shoots to the wedding day he created an experience that was so relaxed and easy going so that no bride has any time to worry. The pictures were more than your average and generic wedding shots and really have us reliving the day over and over again. Aaron truly knows how to capture the moment!
Aaron is such a great personality. He made this not so comfortable experience SO enjoyable and so fun. We walked all over Boston and took the most incredible photos. Best of all, we had the best time doing it. We even stopped to get a drink to just sit around and laugh. We made the best decision when we hired Aaron. I ended up asking for raw images just for my own personal record, and he did it even though that it is not the norm for him. He accommodated us in every way he could and with that alone, I would recommend him to anyone. Thanks Aaron! We can't wait to see our final photo's!

Well the drink is an industry secret for opening everyone up so the photographer can do the best work :D
In the end, I'm just glad you're happy and had fun!
This guy is creative. He brings an experience that no other photographer is going to give you. We used him not only for the wedding but for our engagement. I'm a photographer/videographer myself, and the creativity of Aaron's photos is what drew me to his work. He keeps you comfortable the entire time, which is the most important part in getting the right photo. He worked with us to make sure we achieved the exact product we wanted and this guy took it a step further and gave us a creative edge that produced much more memorable photography and we would not hesitate to use him again. One of Boston's Best!

Thanks so much :D I'm blown away by your compliment. So glad we got to work together!
Aaron is thoughtful, funny, energetic and has an amazing eye. He delivered beautiful photos that I can't wait to hang up on our wall. We loved working with Aaron because he is non-traditional in his approach. Sure, we still got the portraits and family photos but we also have unique pieces of art. Aaron got everything we asked for in the mix, from more photo journalistic photos of the space, to the details like the little craft projects you lost sleep over and want to remember forever (how could I ever forget you, custom designed favor bag?!) I also appreciated how unobtrusive Aaron was during our ceremony, I barely noticed him but he still managed to get really awesome shots!
Planning a wedding is full of constant evaluations about how much these abstract "things" are "worth" but I can tell you this without a doubt...Aaron is worth every penny and more. This one is a no-brainer. Get on his calendar before he's all booked up, you won't regret it!!

You are unique pieces of art that make the photographs the way they are. A pleasure covering your wedding. Warm regards!
Aaron is a rare mix of professional, sincere, and friendly, all while being a truly creative and talented photographer. He is great at making sure his shoots are fun, relaxed, and natural. I would definitely recommend Aaron to friends and family.

Thank you!
Aaron is a true artist: weird, lovable, and incredibly talented. His photos belong printed in National Geographic and hanging in art galleries. Aaron sees things that others can’t and captures mood and lighting in a way that completely breaks the mold of traditional wedding photography.
We chose to work with Aaron because he brings something different to the table. He doesn’t just capture the usual wedding photos of family members uncomfortably standing arm to arm with painfully forced smiles on. Instead he uses his day to find beautiful geometry in the building or light poking through a forgotten window. His photos are thoughtful, well-planned, and artistic. As a result of this, his subject and backgrounds blend together in a perfect unity that captures special moments in ways you didn’t think were possible.
Aaron is incredibly easy to work with and will keep you laughing throughout the day. You won’t regret working with him.

OMG... Best review eva! Loved covering you two, thank you for your kind words and thank you for letting me capture your day.
Aaron is a great photographer! We really enjoyed working with him. He has a lot of creative ideas and brings a lot of positive energy to the shoot. He made us feel relaxed and took a lot of pictures. I didn't think a photo session could be so much fun! Highly recommend!!!
Response from the Vendor on 11/06/2017
Thanks! Loved covering you, and thanks for going with us.
Talk about flexible. I threw Aaron in a completely foreign experience and he stepped up to the task. Aaron's creativity and sheer talent is insurmountable. He's able to find beauty in the most simple, basic moments. He showed the capacity to capture all the feelings throughout our wedding day in his photos. Aaron has demonstrated the ability to be flexible and patient. Thank you Aaron for capturing the memories in your photos! I highly suggest Aaron for anyone looking for a wedding photographer. Whether your preference is candid or posed, Aaron is able to deliver, exceeding expectations.

Thank you! Honestly we love jumping into unfamiliar situations, it's really where we thrive. Thanks for letting us cover you!
Aaron was amazing right from the start! Everything from his down to earth presence and willingness to do anything out of the box, to his incredible, beautiful, and intuitive photography skills were super amazing!
When we were searching for a photographer last minute, and he was one of the people that so kindly could fit us in, there was no question! Aaron showed up to photograph our unique ceremony in the middle of the woods on a cold, rainy day. We then went to another location for post photos and busted out balloons and fairy wings, and he caught it all so candidly:)
We loved our experience with him, and basically: you have to go with Aaron no questions❤

You were both so much fun! And I got one of my favorite and most memorable photos out of it. Best in life!
Aaron is much more than a photographer. He takes his craft very seriously, and yet approaches a photo session with much humor and creativity. Throughout the shoot, we felt comfortable and at ease. He was willing to take some of our suggestions, as well as offer ideas and advice for how to craft some outstanding pictures. I really feel like Aaron is an artist -- he had some ideas that I never would have thought would work, but at the end of the day, these were some of my favorite photos! I highly recommend Aaron, regardless the occasion!!!

Aw, thanks so much and I'm so glad you we're happy and enjoyed yourselves.
Aaron is professional, experienced, relaxed and a lot of fun to be around. He was there for us before the big day to get engagement shots and we had a great time and we were so in love with the photos he took. Then, on our big day he came through again and the resulting photographs are just stunning. We had the best experience with him and we would highly recommend Aaron to anyone considering hiring a professional photographer for their wedding. Aaron was clearly in his element doing his thing and I just knew the photos would be amazing and I was so right. He took photos both indoors and out and made great use of the surroundings. Five stars doesn't seem quite enough!

My main element is making sure you get great shots :D I love covering weddings so for me it's fun, never work.
Thanks for letting me cover you! best wishes going forward.
Aaron was amazing to work with. We hired him to do our NYE wedding and were so impressed with the photos. He's got such a great eye and was able to capture incredible shadow and lighting throughout the course of the night, which is unique to many other photographers out there. Our family and friends all looked so happy in the photos. Aaron captured some great funny moments that really reminded us of what an amazing night it was. Can't wait to hang them on our walls! We would absolutely recommend Aaron to anyone looking for a wedding photographer!
